Hi All,
I've got a 2005 JCM 2000 DSL 50 watt up for grabs with an upgraded Mercury Magnetics OT, MM Choke, and also some cap changes on the Red Channel. Below is a little bit about the DSL 50 and changes.
The Head has two footswitchable channels - Classic Gain is channel A (Green Channel)
Ultra Gain is channel B (red channel)
Channel A also has a Crunch button which instantly adds the Marshall Crunch. The Clean by itself has the sound of a 1959 plexi and the crunch is supposed to be a 2203. I can get tons of tones just from this channel - RHCP, RAGE, Audioslave, Smashing Pumpkins, etc.
Channel B also has a button which takes you from the Ultra Gain to Ultra Gain 2. The Red Channel is supposed to be a hot rodded 2203. With the gain down a bit I can get a great Green Day tone with this channel. With the Ultra Gain button pushed in you get a higher gain response with a boost to the mids. Very in your face.
There's quite a few other features like The Deep & Tone switch but one cool thing is each channel has its own reverb setting which of course can be switched via a footpedal. BTW, the EQ is shared on both channels.
I have the original one channel footswitch with this amp as well.
Here's the upgrades:
A Mercury Magnetics Output Transformer & Choke were installed as well as a cap replacement on the Red Channel. The mods do quite a lot for the amp including raise the output volume when dimed, adds girth to the red channel signal, and also really enhances the tone frequency. There's quite a lot of sounds to be had from this amp.
